KEY HIGHLIGHTS
- Chennai Super Kings will take on Sunrisers Hyderabad in their sixth game of IPL 2023
- CSK are third on the points table with three wins in five games
- CSK could make a couple of big changes with injury issues hampering them big time
So will Dhoni play on Friday is a big question but it’s highly unlikely that he won’t be at the toss with Aiden Markram. But with CSK set to play in Kolkata in a couple of days’ time, Dhoni might choose to sit out of that one given the less turnaround between the two matches. The rest of the line-up is likely to remain the same and if Dhoni does miss out, Conway will take the gloves while one of Ajinkya Rahane, Ruturaj Gaikwad, or Ravindra Jadeja could take up the captaincy mantle.
Chennai Super Kings’ likely XI against Sunrisers Hyderabad: Devon Conway, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Ajinkya Rahane, Moeen Ali, Shivam Dube, Ambati Rayudu, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni (w/c), Maheesh Theekshana, Matheesha Pathirana, Tushar Deshpande
Impact Player: Akash Singh
